<h3>Third-Party Services</h3>
<h4>YouTube Data API v3</h4>
<p>This plugin connects to the YouTube Data API v3 to fetch channel information and video data. API calls are made server-side only when:</p>
<ul>
<li>An admin adds or refreshes a channel</li>
<li>The scheduled cron refresh runs (configurable interval, default 6 hours)</li>
<li>The live status cron runs (every 5 minutes, or every 1 minute during a configured Broadcast Boost window)</li>
</ul>
<p>No API calls are made during normal visitor page views — all data is served from the local cache.</p>
<ul>
<li>Service provider: Google LLC</li>
<li>API endpoint: <code>https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3</code></li>
<li><a href="https://developers.google.com/youtube/terms/api-services-terms-of-service" rel="nofollow ugc">YouTube API Terms of Service</a></li>
<li><a href="https://policies.google.com/privacy" rel="nofollow ugc">Google Privacy Policy</a></li>
</ul>
<p>A YouTube Data API v3 key is required. You can obtain one for free from the <a href="https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/credentials" rel="nofollow ugc">Google Cloud Console</a>.</p>
<h4>YouTube RSS Feeds</h4>
<p>This plugin fetches public YouTube RSS feeds (<code>https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml</code>) to discover recently published and scheduled videos. These requests are read-only, use no API quota, and contain only publicly available video IDs.</p>
<ul>
<li>Service provider: Google LLC (YouTube)</li>
<li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/t/terms" rel="nofollow ugc">YouTube Terms of Service</a></li>
<li><a href="https://policies.google.com/privacy" rel="nofollow ugc">Google Privacy Policy</a></li>
</ul>
<h4>YouTube Embeds</h4>
<p>When a visitor clicks play on a video, an iframe loads from YouTube’s privacy-enhanced domain (<code>youtube-nocookie.com</code>). No embed loads until the visitor initiates playback. No cookies are set by this domain.</p>
<ul>
<li>Service provider: Google LLC (YouTube)</li>
<li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/t/terms" rel="nofollow ugc">YouTube Terms of Service</a></li>
<li><a href="https://policies.google.com/privacy" rel="nofollow ugc">Google Privacy Policy</a></li>
</ul>
<h4>YouTube IFrame Player API</h4>
<p>When a visitor opens the lightbox player, the YouTube IFrame Player API script (<code>https://www.youtube.com/iframe_api</code>) is loaded to enable programmatic playback control (mute/unmute toggle). This script is only loaded when the lightbox is first opened — not on page load. No data is sent to YouTube beyond what the standard embed already transmits.</p>
<ul>
<li>Service provider: Google LLC (YouTube)</li>
<li>API documentation: <a href="https://developers.google.com/youtube/iframe_api_reference" rel="nofollow ugc">YouTube IFrame Player API</a></li>
<li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/t/terms" rel="nofollow ugc">YouTube Terms of Service</a></li>
<li><a href="https://policies.google.com/privacy" rel="nofollow ugc">Google Privacy Policy</a></li>
